Mitsuo Wakin (Three-tailed Wakin) — Adding a Spoonful of "Elegance" to the Crimson of the Beginning.
Unraveling the history of goldfish, there is always the dignified figure of Wakin.Among them, the "Mitsuo (Three-tailed) Wakin", whose tail fin is divided into three, is like the eldest son of the goldfish world who first acquired the "flower" as an ornamental fish while retaining the wild robustness.Hello, this is Juane *.
Today, I would like to talk about the modest elegance dwelling in the unadorned strength of the goldfish in the photo, "Mitsuo Wakin".
Intersection of "Wild" and "Art"
Wakin is the first goldfish born from a mutation of the Crucian carp(Funa).Originally, it had a single tail fin(Funa tail) just like the Crucian carp, but as people found "beauty" in it and raised it with care, individuals with three split tails appeared.The streamlined body stretching swiftly is powerful anywhere.
However, the three tails following behind spread softly in a fan shape receiving the water flow.This exquisite balance of "strength" and "softness" is the essence of the chaotic beauty of Mitsuo Wakin.It may be a figure where humans added just a little "Miyabi (elegance)" to natural life.
Overwhelming Value of Being "Ordinary"
In the world of goldfish, there are many varieties with luxurious fins and unusual shapes.Among them, Mitsuo Wakin may look "ordinary".However, there is great courage and value in firmly holding one's own foundation and living healthily in that place, rather than trying to become someone special. Mitsuo Wakin is exactly the symbol of that. Cherishing a little bit of individuality based on unwavering vitality. That "beauty of not stretching oneself" gives deep peace of mind to the viewer.
In Conclusion: Form to Celebrate Healthy Daily Life
The figure of Mitsuo Wakin swimming energetically adds the color of "liveliness" to our daily lives.Long - lived, sturdy, and positive anywhere.Its three - part tail fin looks as if it is swimming while connecting the past, present, and future into one.Gazing at the origin, cherishing the present, and continuing to swim powerfully toward the future.I would like to continue to watch over the "original landscape" named Mitsuo Wakin with respect.
Establishment of Variety : Wakin is the original species of goldfish introduced from China in the Muromachi period.In the long breeding history in Japan, the mutant "Mitsuo" and "Yotsuo" were fixed.
Structure of Mitsuo : Refers to the state where the bone of the tail is divided into three at the base.Since the tail does not close completely when viewed from above and can maintain a stable silhouette close to a triangle, it has been useful as a standard for "top view (uwami)" since ancient times.
Vitality and Symbolism : Because it inherits the blood of Wakin, which is the base of all improved varieties, it retains the "wild strength" originally possessed by goldfish most strongly.Because it is resistant to disease and long - lived, it is preferred in Japan as a lucky charm wishing for "perfect health" and "longevity" even in modern celebration scenes.
